We have made several festival appearances, pub and folk club guest spots, and .... a lively, performance engaging their audience is guaranteed..... Diverse and Different! They perform over a wide genre of music with jazz undertones on folk roots material, including music for ceilidh/barndances with freelance callers
“Experienced performers at all sorts of venues, of folk, some early, to roots music... great vocals from Sandra, with interesting, introductions and solo items on flute, bodhran/percussion, whistles and even Nepalese flute, and accompanying guitar. Tim’s brilliant finger -style acoustic/electric guitar, and indeed a soloist in his own right, on accordion and mandolin, adds colour and diversity of Claret’s sound. Claret’s repertoire, provides light, shade, and atmosphere, contrasting with rousing numbers, underpinned by solid bass playing, from Bryan with, sensitive rhythm and soloing, and accompanying vocals, plus a few lead songs too.”
Birmingham Artsfest descript.
Clarets repertoire is a diverse and eclectic, different mix of English/folk roots, with influences of the rest of the British Isles to Europe on a fascinating array of instruments, always sparking a talking point from audiences. The sensitive arrangements of their music and song have an individuality, with a jazz-slant thrown in, not to be pigeon-holed! Claret are always in contact with their audiences, getting them to join in with the music, which is a must on an out-door stage presentation, apart from a brief mood change to one or two sensitive numbers.
Best Wishes,
Many thanks for our inclusion
